- #Quah question #1 - From listening to Mind Pump I have learned that compound lifts are essential for building strength and muscle. Do you consider the hip thrust to be in the same category or is it more of an accessory exercise for those seeking to develop their glutes? (51:44)
- #Quah question #2 - If you have horrible all-round mobility should you focus on one area first and then move on to the next one once that is ok? Or should you do a bit on all the problem areas? (1:00:49)
- #Quah question #3 - You guys talk about the importance of eating high-quality/healthy food, yet besides Doug, we rarely get to hear what any of you cook at home. What’s your favorite go-to dish that you cook for yourself at home? (1:11:01)
- #Quah question #4 - Are massage guns good for recovery or a waste of money? (1:23:00)
